To determine the genotypes that would result in a spotted phenotype, we need to create a Punnett square. Let's use the letters B and b to represent the alleles.
The possible genotypes of the parents would be:
Parent 1: Bb (spotted phenotype)
Parent 2: Bb (spotted phenotype)
The Punnett square would look like this:
| B b
-------|---------------
B | BB Bb
b | Bb bb
As we can see from the Punnett square, there are two possible genotypes that would lead to a spotted phenotype: Bb and bb.
In a certain dog breed, the allele B for a black coat is dominant, and the allele b for a spotted coat is recessive. What genotypes for this dog breed would lead to a spotted phenotype? **Make a Punnet square for help**

so whats the answer
The answer is that the genotypes Bb and bb would lead to a spotted phenotype in this dog breed.
